- Accident/Incident reporting to appropriate insurance providers
- Claims administration
- Provide Certificate of Insurance (proof of coverage) when required by external parties

Risk Management, as an activity combines the service areas of:

- Hazardous waste management
- WSIB claims administration and insurable risk underwriting (administration of policies)
One of the goals of this University website is to raise awareness amongst all members of the campus community as to risks on our campus and to reinforce the point that we all need to be "risk managers" of a sort and should be responsible to maintain control of the University's assets and support a safe environment for everyone on campus.
